Guest List features some of our favorite artists filling us in on some of their favorite things, along with other random bits. For this edition, we called New York rapper Mykki Blanco.

Role Models

I have four: GG Allin, Marilyn Manson, Beyoncé, and Lady Gaga. GG never gave a fuck to the very end, which is a very brave stance, especially when people want you to be "mature." Lady Gaga caught the whole pop music industry by storm. I like it when somebody sneaks up and takes the gold away from everybody. She came on the scene and was so crazy that she was like, "I'm going to become the new Michael Jackson and you're going to all accept it," and then she did it.

It's the same thing with Marilyn Manson. I don't think he realized how big he was going to become. Once he did, he probably did way too many drugs and became unfocused, but he could have extended his reign if he hadn't become such a druggie. I just like when unexpected people come out of nowhere, and you're just like, "Oh, for all these reasons this person is not gonna make it," or "This person doesn't fit the mold," or "This person's not pretty." Then they just take all the trophies.

Least Favorite Airports

I hate Heathrow. It's full of insane, uptight bitches who are just not nice. It's like the Pentagon. I really don't like JFK because you have to pay five dollars to exit, which is so bitchy. I don't like Atlanta, their airport is too huge.

Dream Merch Table Item

I've always wanted to get into textile design. I'd like to sell Mykki Blanco linens-- like, blankets and comforters. They'd have a mutant nuclear green slime feel to them. [In faux-pretentious voice] As I mature as an artist, the aesthetic of my home collection would change-- I'd incorporate more cream and beige tones.

Favorite Song of All Time

Jay-Z's "Politics as Usual". I've listened to Reasonable Doubt so many times. "Politics As Usual" has been a big influence for me, because I'm naturally a very aggressive rapper, and not everybody wants to hear you being aggressive all the time. There are different ways to channel that energy. On "Politics As Usual", Jay-Z is being so calm, like, "I know I'm the hottest shit and I don't even have to tell you I'm the hottest shit." The cadence that he uses is just so relaxed, like he's not trying too hard. That's something that I've been trying to cultivate in what I've been releasing recently.

Favorite Music Video of All Time

Fiona Apple's "Criminal". It came out when I was probably 10 or 11, and I related so much to the kind of girl that was in that video-- a little bad, a little dark. I would watch it over and over and over again:

Strangest Display of Fan Affection

One time, this guy gave me this tiny bikini top that was made out of t-shirt material, with waffles as breasts. I couldn't even fit in it. Another fan made me earrings made out of fake teeth-- I've worn those teeth. This guy in L.A. made me a trucker hat with graffiti on it. I was like, "Oh my god, you did not." I don't know if I'll be wearing the hat anytime soon.

Beyoncé, before she gets a little bit older. I want to catch her right now, before she becomes, like, a mom. She's already a mom, but, like, a mom mom. Basically, before she can only stand on stage and sing ballads.

Wake up, get coffee, try to convince my manager I woke up earlier than I actually did.

Favorite Actors and Actresses

My favorite actors are Robert De Niro and Al Pacino. For actresses, it's probably a tie between Angela Bassett and Sally Field. No one can command an audience like them. They can make me angry and they make me cry.

Last Great Concert I Went To

Death Grips. CMJ was the first time I had ever seen them live. I'd seen their music videos and performance footage, but after that show, I was just like, "Damn, I'm so glad I'm about to go on tour with you guys." Their live show is sick:

Best Thing I've Purchased in the Past Year

An iPhone. In my entire life, I never owned an iPod or an iPhone. It's made my life so much easier. I used to have a chronic problem with losing phones, and at some point, I realized the problem was that I was using a cheap phone, so I didn't care about losing it. I've had my iPhone for three months, and I always know where it is. I used to have to be glued to my home computer to answer emails when things started to get serious for Mykki Blanco. Now, I can answer emails in the park.

Favorite "Simpsons" Episode

The one where Bart sells his soul:

Worst Habit

It used to be changing my socks, but all my friends got on me so bad because my feet became such an embarrassing thing. I'd go over to someone's house and have disgusting, smelly feet. So I've gotten way better about that.

Favorite Cereal

Waffle Crisp, but I can't find it anywhere.

Favorite Web Browser

Safari. I used to be so hyped about Google Chrome, but it fucks up all the time.

Dream Date

I would love to go on a date with just a hot, snotty prince. Probably someone in a Middle Eastern royal family. A sultan.
